    We haven't tried the restaurant side yet, so this review is more for the store side. They carry what I would say is a decent selection for our area. We've picked up a handful of spices and ingredients that are not as easily to procure at other local establishments. The only comment or recommendation that I would say is that there are no pricing labels on the shelf items. However, overall prices weren't too bad.

    The BEST Indian food in Lawrence! My husband and I are both vegan and both avid foodies. The vegan options at Cosmos are numerous, plus they will make you anything with tofu if you ask. We have done takeout several times, and just now ate in the cafe. The smell of the food cooking really adds to the foodie experience. The spices they use are very fresh and more complex and intriguing than the other Indian restaurants I have been to. Their Baingan Bartha is the best I have ever had. Absolutely stunning! I love the cafe ambiance, with the grocery store on the other side. So charming. And the staff are wonderful, friendly, and so helpful. I highly recommend Cosmos to anyone who wants a great meal, and the reasonable prices are an absolute bonus!

    Lawrence is so lucky to have this gem of a restaurant/grocery. I’m a fan of southern Indian and Sri Lankan food, and I was not disappointed with the variety, flavors, and friendly service. If the wait is longer than many restaurants, it’s because everything is cooked fresh and brought hot to the table. My two friends and I dined in and shared a number of plates, and we all enjoyed everything we had. Definitely try it! I’d love to see Cosmos stay in business for the long haul.

    If you are looking for an authentic Indian restaurant, I recommend Indian Palace. The food here was very disappointing and underwhelming. 1) Mango Lassi was very watered down and quite expensive. 2) Garlic naan seemed like it was out of the frozen section at the grocery store. 3) Ordered the Chicken Korma and Chicken Tikka Masala. The tikka masala was very bland, we’ve had better jarred sauce. Did not get the korma, was given a mystery curry but that was also just okay. 4) The only decent thing was the potato-pea samosa but it also was on par with the ones in the frozen section. Overall it was VERY expensive for the quality of food. Will not be coming back.

    We planned to go to India Palace, but they hadn’t opened yet 4:30pm. We were craving Naan! Discovered this spot. Tucked away in a shopping center. The restaurant is connected to a market. Unique vibe. Cool music. The food was pretty good. My portion for the Lamb Biryani was small, and my girlfriend enjoyed the Yellow Curry. Definitely worth a visit. Small family owned business!
